Since the kale in this soup is not cooked, you’ll notice its flavor when blended with creamy avocados and juicy cucumbers. Be sure to use perfectly ripe avocados for extra creaminess and flavor. You can choose to use flat or curly kale, depending on your preference. I love the way this soup gives me energy without weighing me down during the winter months. Leftover soup can be used as a dressing or dip for veggies!
